3rd parties are starting to realize (at least Namco is) that they are the ones that can make the vita viable, so to counter act slow western 3DS and upcoming Wii U game sales, they are going to make an effort to make the vita more competative than what it is currently in japan, im my opinion. 3rd parties cant make nintendo handheld consoles successful and they are more likely to have their game skipped over for Nintendo's games (except the games that can withstand their own, like monster hunter and dragon warrior), so look for more vita titles from 3rd parties next year.
As for the question at hand late december/january is the normally thetime companies give festivles and shows to announce games for the first quarter and you are seeing that with some of the lesser known 3rd parties.
